TriStar Centennial Medical Center Hospital

Hey everyone... I had my surgery on 9-08-08 with Dr. Dyer at centennial ... It has been a wonderful experience from the first day I started my weight lost program . When I first met Dr. Dyer he really made me feel very comfortable . I really like the fact that he always ask me if I had any question? He went over everything carefully and through. I felt very comfortable going into this surgery because I really felt he is a Dr that takes every precaution for the patients . Day of surgery moments before I was about to be move into the OR he again went over with what to expect and wanted to know if I had any concerned. He is a very easy going person that is easy to talk to. He is really and excellent surgeron. After my surgery and retruning home If I had any question the staff at the office are always quickly to answer the phone.

Dr. Dyer has been absolutely fantastic from the start and I feel very confident that he will continue to provide outstanding care for me for the remainder of my process. He is patient, professional yet down-to-earth, and I definitely feel he has my best interests at heart. He has explained every aspect of my care and has made sure I am well educated as to my after-care process. His staff have been very kind and helpful to me and my family. I would highly recommend Dr. Dyer to anyone considering bariatric surgery.rnrnTonya York

The first time I met Dr. Dyer was at the first siminar that I attended on gastric bypass surgery.

He has wonderful bedside manners and surgical competence.rnI'M SO GLAD I HAD IT DONE !rnThank you Dr. DyerrnYour a 10 with us.rn

I am 7 years post op and have really come to appreciate the surgeon that I selected. I had some complications right after surgery and it was all pretty scary but looking back, Dr Dyer and the ICU staff at Centennial Medical Center were terrific. They were \"present\" in the situation and I felt very informed and involved in the treatment. I have done terrific following the surgery and have no day to day issues. I am very blessed. Now that it has been 7 years (wow time flies) I have gotten to know Dr Dyer from followup visits etc... and I appreciate his abilities and skills as a doctor and surgeon. I found him reserved and shy personally but very competent at first. Over the years I see more and more of his personality and feel very comfortable with him.rnrn

Dr. Dyer was very caring and compassionate including his office staff. He was very attentative to my needs. He was also very informative in regards to the various surgical options, risk and benefits. His bedside manner was outstanding. Overall he is an excellant Physician and I would highly recommend him to anyone who is considering have Bariatric surgery.

I am now 5 weeks out from having the Realize band installed. I have lost a total of 35lbs. I have always been very scared of having this procedure done. I first met Dr. David Dyer during the first seminar I had ever attended. As he began to talk about all the different types surgeries, I was extremely impressed with his knowledge. He explained everything so that even I could understand it. He also explained that there are risk and told us the reasons why. He really made me feel comfortable with the decision that I was about to make. His bedside manner was exceptional. His office staff is superior above any office that I have ever worked with. They seemed to be interested in me instead of my social security number. I first attended the seminar on June 3rd, 2008 and my surgery was on July 24th. Heather and Eloise know there stuff when it comes to insurance approvals. Dr. Dyer and his staff has a very good follow up program and continues to work with me on any questions I may have. I would go through this procedure again, and I would definitely pick Dr. Dyer and his staff to take care of me. They have already changed my life and I am very grateful to them. I am off all my meds now except for the Flintstones Of Course!!

Dr. Dyer Rocks!rnI have like Dr. Dyer the first time I met him and there is nothing that I don't like about him. He has great bedside manner and awesome personality.rnIf you are looking for a Doctor that is Class A stylernDr. Dyer is your doctor. He cares for his patients and and it doesn't matter if they are 1 week out of their surgery or 1 year from their surgery. The aftercare program that Centennial Bariatric of Obesity offer is top notched. rnDr. Dyer is Highly recommended in everything he does and you will have the best care ever.rnThanks Dr. DyerrnTracie Bookerrn

He was very friendly and knew his stuff.. His staff was friendly also, and very helpful.. I would definetly recommend using him if you are thinking of having any obesity surgery around Nashville.. The day of surgery I was very nervous because this was the first surgery I had ever had.. He came to check on me before surgery and told me everything would go great.. He visited me again after surgery to tell me how everything went. The next day before i went home he came back in to see how I was feeling.. He told me if i had any problems or need anything just to contact his office and he told me he wanted to see me back the following week... He strongly suggested that I attend aftercare programs he said that they help out alot.. He also told me the risks of the surgery... Overall he was wonderful and im really glad I chose him to preform my surgery..

My first impression of Dr. Dyer was very possitive. He seemed very nice and was very patient with my family and my long list of questions ( I pulled out my sprial notebook full). He is very knowledgeable on the surgery itself. Don't ask diatary questions those are strictly for the diatician. My appointment was at the end of the day so there weren't really any staff there but the few that were left were very polite and friendly. There is a MAJOR emphesis on AFTER CARE in every way. The after care program seems to very structured and very strict as well. He was very straight forward about the risks and did not sugar coat ANYTHING which I liked very well and found respectful. I will update this after surgery for the rest of the questions addressed.rnrnrnWell I am 1 week post-op today(July 15,2008). Dr. Dyer has an excelent bedside manner and really sits down to talk over everything with you. He wants to make sure you are not in pain or discomfort at any time which was great. Surgical competence was excelent as well and I had a FABULOUS EXPERIENCE with Centennial and DR. Dyer. I would ABSOLUTLY RECOMEND him to others as well as to Centennial. Thank You for helping me change my life! (surgery date was July 8, 2008)
